[Intro] (Fast, aggressive guitar riff and punchy drums kick in) (Eli, quickly) Vibe check. Proceed with caution. [Verse 1] (Cody - Melodic, slightly cynical) You walked in the room, main character vibe Said the fit was slay, yeah, you looked alive But the energy was forced, and the moment felt cap Just another quick performance in the algorithm's trap You gave the whole room a quick vibe check Judging every gesture from their neck to their deck And I’m just standing back, feeling totally NPC While you chase the aesthetic for the whole internet to see. [Pre-Chorus] (Cody - Building intensity) We’re all using the same words to sound different and new Are we even having thoughts, or just quoting the queue? If you can’t fit the mold, then the judgment gets intense Yeah, we’re terrified of having any common sense! [Chorus] (Anthemic, massive Pop-Punk chorus) We spent our whole lives running from the simple truth That being genuine is a threat to the youth So we shout down the fear with the latest trending phrase Trying not to be the person who gets hit with "That's so cringe!" We're trading every feeling for an easy, shallow term Hoping this vocabulary will stop the digital germ! [Verse 2] (Eli - Fast, cynical rap flow, dense rhymes) Look, your rizz game is mid, your whole approach is tired You're standing on a platform that the algorithm wired You wanna stan the lifestyle, you wanna slay the fit But the whole thing is superficial, yeah, I'm calling out the cap of it You posted the opinion, now the ratio is rough You thought you had the backing, but the audience said, "Enough!" We use three easy letters to express a complex feeling I-Y-K-Y-K, but we don't know the healing We need a real conversation, a sentence that can breathe But we hide behind the hashtags, we hide beneath the leaves. [Pre-Chorus] (Cody - Building intensity) We’re all using the same words to sound different and new Are we even having thoughts, or just quoting the queue? If you can’t fit the mold, then the judgment gets intense Yeah, we’re terrified of having any common sense! [Chorus] (Anthemic, massive Pop-Punk chorus) We spent our whole lives running from the simple truth That being genuine is a threat to the youth So we shout down the fear with the latest trending phrase Trying not to be the person who gets hit with "That's so cringe!" We're trading every feeling for an easy, shallow term Hoping this vocabulary will stop the digital germ! [Bridge] (Music strips back, rhythmic bass pulse) (Eli & Cody trading lines, aggressive) Throw out the script! Throw out the captions! Break the flow, forget the rizz! Tell me what bet is that, when nothing is honest! [Chorus] (Anthemic, massive Pop-Punk chorus) We spent our whole lives running from the simple truth That being genuine is a threat to the youth So we shout down the fear with the latest trending phrase Trying not to be the person who gets hit with "That's so cringe!" We're trading every feeling for an easy, shallow term Hoping this vocabulary will stop the digital germ! [Outro] (Music hits full speed, final chaotic riff) That's so cringe!
